What we do
Seven practice areas, built to connect: the schedule feeds the cost forecast, the risk register feeds the schedule, and the dashboard reads from all of them. Our work is management consulting. We do not provide design or engineering services.
PMO and governance
Design, stand up and run the office that gives a programme its decision rights, cadence and single version of the truth.
Read moreProject controls
One controls system that links scope, schedule, cost, change and risk, so a variance in one shows up in all of them.
Read morePlanning and scheduling
Programmes that reflect how the work will actually be built, and that stand up to scrutiny from the client, the engineer or a tribunal.
Read moreOutsourced planning and reporting
Your planning department, on a monthly retainer. We act as your planners and report writers for every project you run, without the cost of a full-time team.
Read moreRisk management
Risk that feeds the programme and the forecast, instead of sitting in a register nobody opens after the workshop.
Read moreDelay analysis and claims
Forensic analysis of what delayed the project, who carries it, and what the records show, prepared to the standards tribunals expect.
Read moreDigital PMO and reporting
Dashboards, portals and workflow tools that read from the live schedule and cost data, so reporting stops being a monthly retyping exercise.
